Instructions
1
|
Remove any tendons from the chicken and cut it into approximately 4 to 5 centimeter cubes. In a deep bowl, whisk together the egg, kefir, flour, cornstarch, and chili powder until smooth and creamy, then season generously with salt and pepper.
2
|
Add the chicken pieces to the egg and flour mixture and stir well so that each piece is completely coated with the egg mixture; let marinate for approximately 5 to 10 minutes.
3
|
Place the panko breadcrumbs in a bowl or deep plate and season generously with salt and pepper. Preheat the air fryer to 230°C (450°F) and, in the meantime, coat the chicken pieces in the panko breadcrumbs until completely covered, then place them on a plate or board.
4
|
Grease the air fryer basket with a little cooking spray or oil and place the chicken fillets side by side in the basket.
5
|
Cook chicken pieces in an air fryer at 230°C for 7 minutes, depending on their size, until they are nicely crispy on the outside and the internal temperature reaches 74°C. Repeat the process until all the chicken pieces are cooked.

|
Meanwhile, for the sauce, mix together mayonnaise, sriracha and sweet chili sauce.
7
|
To serve, spread the sauce over the crispy baked chicken pieces and/or serve it as a dip with the Bang Bang Chicken.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Buttermilk Tenderizing Magic 🥛Marinate chicken in kefir or buttermilk for at least 2 hours before breading to break down proteins and ensure maximum tenderness and flavor absorption.
- Panko Crunch Perfection 🍞Toast panko breadcrumbs in a dry skillet for 2-3 minutes before coating to enhance their golden color and create an extra crispy exterior.
- Cornstarch Coating Hack 🥣Create a three-stage breading station with cornstarch, seasoned flour, and panko to ensure a thick, perfectly adherent coating that won't fall off during air frying.
- Air Fryer Space Strategy 🍗Arrange chicken pieces in a single layer with slight spacing between them to allow hot air circulation and achieve maximum crispiness on all sides.
- Spicy Dip Balance 🌶️When mixing the Bang Bang sauce, start with less Sriracha and gradually add to control heat level, tasting as you go for perfect flavor intensity.
